"Shopkeeper Mo doesn't need to be so polite. Get up quickly. If that's the case, then you can be regarded as one of the shareholders of our Hantang Trading Company."
Cheng Chubi quickly helped shopkeeper Mo up and said with a smile.
"Don't worry, the reason Cheng is interested in your sea trade fleet is because there is a lot of potential in sea trade."
"By the way, I think you should also have seen the toiletries that Cheng gave to Brother Dejiao.
In addition, there are also glazed products, and it is said that you personally took them and presented them to the brother of the Lord of Linyi."
After hearing this, Shopkeeper Mo nodded crazily, as if a lark was chirping happily in his heart at this moment.
I had inadvertently had a conversation with the ranger named Wu Tunbao about whether there was really three seasons of rice.
Achieved a change in his destiny.
Cheng Chubi asked the store owner to bring a pen and paper and wrote down a sentence.
Then he handed the piece of paper to Deng Chengxin, and then gave instructions to Shopkeeper Mo.
"Shopkeeper Mo, you can first accompany me, this disciple, to Zhao's Western Region Liulicang in Dongshi."
"They will give you two sets of toiletries, and you can feel them yourself first.
If anything happens later, just look for Brother Dezhou, or come to Duke Lu's Mansion to look for Cheng."
Shopkeeper Mo left the restaurant with a lot of gratitude and quickly followed Deng Chengxin.
Li Dezhang looked at Cheng Chubi and said with a smile.
"Brother Chu Bi, Brother Yu, I think you are more like a merchant than a merchant."
"Brother, thank you for your compliments. Since our Han and Tang Dynasty trading companies are going to be established, how can we do it just by planting pepper?"
"After all, more pepper will be grown in the future and the price will fall. So how can we make money?"
"Brother, think about it again. Those barbarians traveled thousands of miles to come to our Tang Dynasty. Why? Isn't it just to seek wealth?"
"Whether it's silk from the Tang Dynasty, porcelain, or many other good things, they are willing to pay big prices to buy them and then sell them back."
"But no matter how expensive we sell it to them, they still flock to it."
"That proves that they are still profitable."
"Then if that's the case, why don't we have our own caravan, such as the Mo family's ships."
"Compared to the land route, the sea route is also difficult and dangerous, but a sea-going ship can carry two to three thousand dan, tsk tsk..."
"That makes sense. Come, come, come and congratulate us for having an extra merchant fleet as soon as our Han-Tang Trading Company was established."
Cheng Chubi clinked glasses with Li Dejiang and drained the wine in one gulp.

Housekeeper Fang Shen passed by the kitchen storage room and heard the sound of rummaging through boxes and cabinets, and his expression changed.
Could the prime minister's house be robbed in broad daylight? It shouldn't be the kitchen.
Housekeeper Fang Shen subconsciously stepped lightly and continued walking, when he heard the conversation coming from inside.
"Second Young Master, no..." This was Fang Cheng's silly voice.
"How is it possible? It's not like our family has never had soup. It's all in the soup." This was the voice of the second young master.
The housekeeper Fang Shen rolled his eyes helplessly, stopped a few steps away from the door, and then coughed hard.
"But the second young master is inside?"
"Uncle Shen?" Fang Jun heard the sound coming from outside. He quickly stopped rummaging through things and hurried outside the storage room.
"It turns out to be Uncle Shen, why are you here?"
Fang Shen bowed to Fang Jun and explained.
"Oh, I heard some noise here, so I came over. I didn't expect you, the second young master, to be here."
Seeing the suspicious look in Uncle Shen's eyes, Fang Jun laughed, rolled his eyes for a long time, and then spoke.
"Uncle Shen, I remember we have pepper at home, right?"
Uncle Shen, the housekeeper, smiled, stroking his long beard and nodded.
"Of course this is true. At the end of last year, Your Majesty heard that I had a cold spleen and stomach.
I also specially gave the master two hundred kilograms of pepper and two jars of ten kilograms of pepper wine."
"Then why did I find no pepper seeds after searching here for a long time?"
"Second Young Master, that pepper is a valuable thing. Fortunately, it is very durable, so it is usually placed on the altar and stored in the treasury."
"Usually, I just take one or two ounces and grind it into powder and put it here in the kitchen."
"Inside the treasury?" Fang Jun couldn't help but froze, and his expression suddenly dropped.
Uncle Shen, the housekeeper, couldn't help but be happy when he saw the second young master looking like this.
"Second Young Master, I want to use it. I don't know what to use it for. How many kilograms or taels are needed? Just tell me and I will get it for you."
"I, the quantity I need is a bit large."
Fang Jun rolled his eyes several times, finally gritted his teeth, stamped his feet, and strode away.
Abandoning the housekeepers, Uncle Shen and Fang Cheng, both looked confused.
"Master, where are you going?"
"I'm going to find my mother." Fang Jun hurried away without looking back.
If you have any difficulties, go to your mother, who is kind-hearted and easy to talk to. With just a hundred or two hundred kilograms of pepper, there will definitely be no problem.
If you are looking for daddy, tut tut...if he doesn't slap the waiter in the room and scream, it means he is in a good mood today.
Therefore, my mother is my refuge, my safe haven, and a living Bodhisattva who responds to all my requests.
Fang Jun soon arrived at the backyard and saw his mother reading a book under the shade of a tree outside the house, not far away.
The naughty third brother was crawling on the ground. When he saw the third brother, Fang Jun couldn't help but feel happy.
But I quickly thought of serious matters, now is not the time to tease my third brother.
"Mom, I have seen my mother." Fang Junren came before he could.

Mrs. Lu turned her head and saw the tall, strong man walking quickly towards this side.
"Erlang, why are you back so early?"
"Mother, my child said hello to Brother Chu Bi. Mother, my child has something that I would like to ask your permission for?"
"Hey, you are so polite to me, why don't you tell me first?" Lu asked with a smile, holding Fang Jun's hand and sitting next to her.
"Mom, Brother Chu Bi and Brother Weide are going to do a big business together, and I want to be a part of it too."
"Big deal?" Mrs. Lu was stunned. That boy Cheng Sanlang... just a few days ago swindled Erlang's 100 yuan of private money.
Could it be that he is trying to trick this kid a second time?
Seeing his mother's appearance, Fang Jun quickly explained.
"Mother, I didn't make a bet with them this time. Brother Chu Bi and the others are going to join forces and go to Jiaozhou to plant pepper."
"Not only brothers Chu Bi and Brother Wei De, but also General Yuchi's brothers Yuchi, General Li Jing..."
I heard my son counting a lot of people here with his fingers, and then explained the reason.
Lu naturally understood what was going on. "How much does that share cost?"
"No money, just pepper. Because we are going to Jiaozhou to plant pepper, we need a lot of pepper as seeds."
"Everyone uses pepper seeds as shares, one hundred pounds of pepper."
